Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Government order dated April 7, 1981, effectively rescinded the power of the Committee of Management to appoint a Principal in non-Government aided schools, as per Section 9(4) of the relevant Act. The Court ruled that the Selection Committee had no authority to select the appellant for the position, rendering the appointment ineffective. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision that the appellant's appointment was invalid due to the withdrawal of the power to make such appointments.
